Kenwood HT batteries and chargers

[PastorGary]

After playing the Ni-Cad game with several TK-280, TK-380 and TK-370 HT's, I am starting to replace the Ni-Cad's with the Ni-MH variety.

 

It looks like the only multi-chemical rapid charger that I have out of 5 chargers total is a KSC-24, which does both Ni-Cad and Ni-MH.

 

Has anyone tried NON-KENWOOD rapid chargers for the battery packs  -  KNB-15 and KNB-17  ?

 

Looking for one more rapid charger for these new Ni-MH packs.  OR if anyone has a used Kenwood KSC-24 charger available, please let me know. (I don't do ebay).

 

Thanks.

I'll take a look on Monday see what I have floating around.

Put the word out locally and within 4 hours we had a KSC-24 desktop charger. We already had a 120 VAC to 15 VDC 1000 mah rapid charger power supply from a KSC-20, so we only needed the KSC-24 cradle. 

 

John - if you happen to locate something, please PM me - we still may need a spare for our south Alabama equipment custodian's location. Thanks.

will do

Thanks John - just a little news taking place this morning.  Our southern states responder team equipment custodian was able to secure a slightly used KSC-24 this morning for $ 15.00.  It was tested and is now staged with the rest of our go-gear in Baldwin County, Alabama.

 

Looks as if we have enough of these for the moment and thank you for contacting me about it last week.  Very much appreciated.

no problem I'll keep my eyes/ears open and let you know if I come across anything.

Thanks again, John... as we slowly change over to NiMH, we still may need one more KSC-24.
